Where is it grown in the world?
You can find wool anywhere that you can find goats, camels, and rabbits.

Items made from the fiber?
My fiber is used for making clothing, such as sox, sweaters, coats, and blankets.
Interesting information about the grain and what it is used for.
When wool is made into a sweater/coat you should give it 24 hours before wearing it again.
Also wool is comparatively stronger than steel.
Another cool information fact would be that, wool can absorb 30% of its own weight in moisture.
